Be happy

I will interpret simple as “happy”. And I will tell you the one thing I do once a day to make myself happy. It is simply:

• Find one thing that makes me smile.

If I can do this, I can shake depression, and be productive….working all day, just by finding that one thing, and holding it for the entire day.

Many people can’t even find one thing. Depression is a disease that pleagues 88% of the entire adult world.

Why?

Because when we grow up we find out that we are not famous, like the movies said we would be. We are not rich, like our dreams said we would be. We are not loved like our hopes said we would be.

We are disheartened. Life threw us a curve ball. How do we cope?

It’s important to do this every day:

• Every day, work towards something that makes you happy.

It could be a book, a routine, a lifestyle, a hobby, or simply helping people. Do it, every day - and smile.

Some of us aren’t rich. Some of us aren’t beautiful. The 99% are the majority. Don’t think you are alone. Being average is, “okay” … But it is your God-given right to be more.

Have you ever thought that perhaps you were more than your dreams? More than your job? More than your car? More than your family or friends? Have you thought that perhaps you have greater potential than you are using? If you have ever thought this, then you do.

How do you use it?

Well….it’s complicated. It starts with stopping the thought process. The reason being is because we get caught in circles. These circles trap us. We are prisoners of our own mind.

Next, we have to learn to see from other points of view. But in so seeing, see without any preconceived ideas or opinions. Simply see the situation, the shape, and the color. See it truly.

And then, forget about yesterday. Today is a new day. Reinvent yourself. Don’t get stuck in routines. Be fresh and new, daily.

Forever and a day is how you should think. Don’t think that you will ever end. Don’t think anything negative. You are here, now, breathing. You exist. Maybe you will live forever.

I think therefore I am.

This phrase has deeper meaning than you know. If you stay positive, everything will be okay. you will see solutions you didn’t before. You will think of answers that you thought were impossible. And your mind will be more free to experience new things, new ideas, and new solutions than you ever dreamed.

It’s all about leveraging yourself. Use the complete aspect of who you are to bring about your objectives. Don’t have conflicting interests, or things get touchy. Know thyself, and know thyself completely.
